I mentioned briefly here that AFI FEST showed 2 out of the 3 filmmakers to watch (according to the Independent Spirit Awards.) Well the missing third of that equation is opening this weekend in NYC for a limited engagement.
FROWNLAND is the best film we didn't show at our festival. It's an angry cinematic experience that gets under your skin; the film feeds off its audience's apprehension like an unpleasant addiction. FROWNLAND is the kinda film which has been actually starting shouting matches in theaters after the credits roll. These are fights involving actual real world grown ups, mind you. It's the sort of thing cinephiles and programmers wait around all year to see.
If you are in the NYC area next week go catch this film, if not it should hopefully (please!) be heading to a Netflix queue near you soon.

I like that you include the description "angry cinematic experience that...feeds off its audience's apprehension like an unpleasant addiction." in a recommendation.
